OVER ALL PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Feasibility Studies
We believe that the experience with our own successful company makes us an excellent
consultancy to create an effective plan prepared to serve your particular needs. An
independent analysis of your project economics and a strong business plan will not only help
you locate the funds you need, but will also clarify your own purpose and serve as a guide for
future growth and productivity.
PEC Consulting creates the kind of economic models that banks want as support for
financing. Our Feasibility reports provide professional financial projections and address the
needs of investors and lenders.
We take into consideration the technical and financial phases of a project for the preparation
of a Feasibility Study. An estimate is made of all equipment, systems and energy
requirements, a financial analysis is then prepared, including operating and capital costs. A
Feasibility Study also gives detailed site logistics and transport requirements.
Our services are interrelated. We see the benefit to our clients when we are awarded the
preparation of a conceptual study or a pre-feasibility study prior to that of a Feasibility Study.
This preliminary work will be most valuable to determine whether to proceed with project
evaluation.
Furthermore, and along the same line of a Feasibility Study, we are qualified to assist our
clients from financial organizations with pre-credit feasibility studies, which provide an
independent and thorough analysis and verification of the data submitted to our clients by
their customers. PEC CONSULTING has performed Conceptual Feasibility Studies,
Feasibility Studies, Pre-Feasibility Studies, and Pre-Credit Feasibility Studies, including
capital cost estimates in many countries around the world, including recent projects in the
United States, Trinidad, Colombia, Peru, Paraguay, Africa, and Kuwait.
We have the expertise to produce the following studies:

Project Financial Feasibility and Deal


Structuring
Financial Forecasting and Modeling
A strong financial forecast is at the heart of any successful project since it provides the
roadmap and therefore the basis for developing the investment plan.
Optimal Capital Structuring
An optimal capital structure is the best mix of debt and equity financing that will maximize
the investment value of the project while minimizing its cost of capital (WACC).
Exploration of Innovative Sources of Finance
Depending on the purpose and other specific characteristics of the project, in some cases it
could make sense to explore non-traditional sources of finance to take advantage of more
effective funding mechanisms. Such sources may include government funding, endowments
private equity, angel investors, mezzanine finance, etc.
Financial Deal Structuring and Negotiation Support
We can provide options and support to structuring a deal to achieve specified management
objectives and in consideration of desired 3rd party involvement and partnerships.
Financial Risk Management and Reporting
Once a decision has been made to begin investment on a new project, we can help manage
the financial risks, identifying key risk factors with respect to the project’s financing and
investments, the implications of unexpected events, and alternatives on risk mitigation
actions to ensure the projects financial and economic success.

Project Technical Feasibility


The four basics of a technical feasibility analysis are the market analysis, the availability of
raw materials, the estimation of the capital and operating costs, and the economic analysis. In
order to provide our customers with a step-by-step approach analysis of the economics of a
project, the feasibility work is done in phases thus limiting expenses in case the project’s
feasibility guidelines are not met during the initial phases of development. Under normal
approach, the phases of feasibility analysis we follow are:
• Conceptual Feasibility Study
• Pre-Feasibility Study
• Bankable Feasibility Study
Please see Essential Phases of a Feasibility Study for the work scope of each of the phases of
the Technical Feasibility development.
We have the expertise to produce the following studies:
• Feasibility Studies for the Cement Industry

valuations
PEC Consulting’s comprehensive valuations take into consideration business assets,
historical earnings, market, mining and production methods, maintenance and reliability of
the operations, evaluation of plant personnel, management, financials, future projections, etc.
We generate a fair and objective valuation, valid for the specific purposes of our client. The
finished product is delivered as a comprehensive written report.
We carry out independent valuations of lime plants, cement plants, and for the coal and
industrial minerals processing facilities as required for:
• Financing / collateral
• Taxation
• Accounting for plant depreciation purposes
• Mergers and acquisitions
• Insurance coverage
PEC Consulting is experienced in utilizing several appraisal methods depending on the need
of our clients, such as valuations based on:
• Replacement cost approach
• Present value of discounted cash flows
• An EBITDA multiple for the industry
• Comparable recent acquisitions
The valuation must take into consideration market growth and stability, raw materials
reserves for the predicted life of the facility, and substantial capital investments which may
be required due to upcoming environmental or other factors external to the facility.
We are knowledgeable in the industries that we serve and have performed many valuations
for mergers and acquisitions, financing, insurance and accounting depreciation purposes.
Over the course of the last five years, we have carried out several valuations of cement plants
which included an overview of their operating conditions and valuation of assets. Some
valuations were required by financial institutions to support the expansion of current cement
plants or for the implementation of Greenfield cement manufacturing facilities. Others
included the valuation of cement plants for accounting and insurance purposes.

Due( collect) Diligence(Application) for Acquisitions (donation) / Technical

Due Diligence Review


Our clients are private entities and international financing institutions. We provide advice in
the form of business and technical reviews to identify potential risks associated with the asset
to be acquired. We identify and assess elements which could affect the future operation of a
processing plant or mine from a technical, environmental, economic, and social viewpoint.
The Scope of a Due Diligence Study covers the following:
• Analysis of the Company ownership; business activities including: financial data,
earnings, share price, holdings, growth and general business dealings
• Evaluation of the market, capacities, energy usage and fuel sources, logistics,
products and services; involvement with local communities, culture and values,
commitment to social responsibilities and sustainable development, waste
management practices, environmental footprint and concerns, environmental and
social impacts; current or future potential negative issues.
Our due diligence covers geologic resources and mining operations. It begins with a Desktop
Analysis, followed by fieldwork where an assessment is made of resources and reserves,
mineability, equipment selection, productivity, CAPEX and OPEX, the operational
organization (team & organization); environmental, safety and security; audit of process
systems and equipment.
The Scope of a Technical Mining Due Diligence Study, or Coal Mine Due Diligence Study,
will also include the different aspects related to the property such as the geology,
hydrogeological, geotechnical, surface terrain and how these physical characteristics impact
the reserves, mining plan, mining operations, infrastructure, logistics, environmental issues,
safety, etc.
PEC Consulting’s specialized Consultants are involved in the due diligence process starting
at project inception and are exceptionally qualified to prepare and deliver a comprehensive
Report. The Report will provide company benchmarking against similar operations, an
economic analysis, and management review.
Our Mining and Process Consultants are highly experienced professionals with former
operational and technical backgrounds working for world class mining organizations. They
have conducted technical due diligence reviews, developed mine and mine access layouts,
evaluated and selected mining plans, mining equipment, and provided other mine support to
our clients.
